| Summary: | Aim. To evaluate medical and social status, life quality, prevalence of modifiable risk factors (RF) of atherosclerosis in patients after acute myocardial infarction (MI), and to evaluate the risk of cardiovascular diseases in this category of patients.Material and methods. Totally, 200 patients with MI diagnosis were questioned. Age 32-65 y.o. (mean age 50,4±1,4). Responders were Chelyabinsk and suburbs inhabitants. Responders were invited to reply on social status, life quality before MI, prevalence of modifiable RF of atherosclerosis.Results. Average evaluation of social wellbeing and life quality before MI was at a satisfactory level. An exclusion was income by 1 family member (below average). Prevalence of RF of atherosclerosis: chronic stress — 72,0%, arterial hypertension — 67,5%, overweight — 55,0%, smoking — 49,0%, high cholesterol — 42,5%, hypodynamia — 20,5%, hyperglycemia — 18,5%, non-rational food habits — 16,5%. Only 26,0% of responders linked the development of MI with their lifestyle. Conclusion. At an example of MI patients, predominantly of economically active age, living in large industrial city, the risks for cardiovascular pathology were estimated: low family income (53,5%), insufficient information on negative influences of modifiable RF of atherosclerosis and their high prevalence. |
